Earlier this week, Toledo resident Chad Lesko was walking around a local park when an angry stranger approached the 23-year-old and told him he had to leave. “He just walks up to me and says, ‘You’re not allowed in this park because you’re a rapist,’” Lesko recalled yesterday over the phone. “I’m like, ‘No, I’m not!’”

WABC and Good Morning America weatherperson Heidi Jones was arrested this week after police determined she fabricated a story about a Hispanic man trying to rape her in Central Park. Today, the fallout: ostracism, anger, and possible unemployment and jail.
